Chapter 709: Chapter 708: Black Saber, Black Robe, Black Veil Hat

...

Speaking of the East Desolate.

Fierce Battle Sect.

The Fierce Battle Sect was a first-class power in the East Desolate. Although not as prominent as the Eternal Mountain Ye Family, the Divine Dragon Azure Sea’s Long Family, or the Nine Dragons Valley Heavenly Martial Divine Sect, they still towered above many other forces in the East Desolate.

They were indeed a local overlord.

Forty thousand years ago, they were actually not a first-class power, at best just a second-rate force.

However, because of their overwhelming victory against the Emperor Immortal Sect in that battle, they gained many benefits and rapidly developed, squeezing into the ranks of first-class powers.

But a few months ago, in a renewed campaign against the Emperor Immortal Sect, the Fierce Battle Sect suffered a devastating defeat and heavy losses.

Since then, they had been recuperating and, in their spare time, had joined the Six Demon Sect, which allowed them a breather.

However, the loss in the Southern Domain couldn’t be recovered anytime soon.

Their two great ancestors, the Vajra Bull Demon and True Person Yang, were all slain by the Emperor Immortal Sect’s Sword Saint Ning Zongtang.

Such a loss was unbearable, even for the Fierce Battle Sect.

The Fierce Battle Sect had only four top-tier ancestors and the ancestral grandfather, Elder Lion Heaven.

The loss of two of them spoke volumes.

Therefore, during this period, the Fierce Battle Sect had been biding its time.

After leaning on the Six Demon Sect, the Fierce Battle Sect finally had time to catch their breath and start scheming again.

They couldn’t possibly let the loss at the hands of the Emperor Immortal Sect slide.

However, this was a matter that required long-term planning.

Because the ancestral grandfather, Elder Lion Heaven, had been missing for half a year, and they had yet to find him.

Above the sky of the Fierce Battle Sect Mountain Gate, the Revenge Talisman was rooted in the void, persisting there.

At first, the Fierce Battle Sect found it hard to accept, but as time passed, they grew accustomed to it.

They didn’t care about what the Revenge Talisman meant.

The only one who knew about the Revenge Talisman, Elder Lion Heaven, had also disappeared.

Therefore, within the Fierce Battle Sect, there was no one who feared the Revenge Talisman.

On this day, like any other, the disciples of the Fierce Battle Sect were performing their duties assigned to them.

But outside the Mountain Gate of the Fierce Battle Sect, a person appeared.

Clad in a black robe, wearing a black hood, and carrying a long black saber on her back.

Judging by her figure, she appeared to be a woman.

However, the hood concealed her features, making it difficult to discern her appearance.

This mysterious woman bearing the Black Saber shifted her gaze upwards, fixing her eyes upon the Revenge Talisman above the Fierce Battle Sect Mountain Gate.

After a moment, she withdrew her gaze, lowered her eyelids, and grasped the hilt of the black saber on her back, slowly drawing the blade.

"Who are you?"

It seemed that only now did the disciples guarding the Fierce Battle Sect’s Mountain Gate notice the mysterious woman in a black robe, and they immediately called out in question.

However, the mysterious woman with the Black Saber did not respond.

Her hand movements did not stop.

This scene immediately put the Fierce Battle Sect’s disciples on alert, "If you do not answer, we’ll treat you as an enemy and suppress you!"

"Speak, who are you, and what is your purpose here?!"

The Mountain Gate’s guarding disciples continued to shout their questions.

The mysterious woman still did not speak.

This made the guarding disciples impatient, and one said, "Seize her!"

Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh————

Several disciples guarding the gate made their move simultaneously, closing in on her.

"Ignorant fools, how dare you run wild in my Fierce Battle Sect!"

The attacking disciples, with a fierce glint in their eyes, harshly shouted.

Boom!

However, just as they were about to touch the mysterious woman, an invisible force erupted.

In an instant, the several guarding disciples were shattered into a mist of blood.

Dead on the spot!

"How is that possible?!"

The disciple at the rear saw that scene, and was so scared his liver and gallbladder nearly split, looking at the mysterious woman with terrified eyes, he turned and ran, screaming, "Enemy attack, enemies are coming!"

The shout of this mountain-guarding disciple immediately alerted many people within the Fierce Battle Sect.

"What’s going on, what’s all this panic about?"

A Hall Master of the Fierce Battle Sect stepped out, his Blood Qi trembling around him, and he looked at that disciple and coldly shouted.

Seeing him, the disciple seemed to have found a savior and hurriedly said, "Hall Master Niu, there are enemies outside, and they have already killed five fellow brothers!"

"Who is it that dares to kill people of my Fierce Battle Sect?!" Hall Master Niu’s nostrils emitted two streams of white breath, his eyes flashing an intense and chilling light.

"Follow me!"

Hall Master Niu took the lead and, with the disciple in tow, charged towards the Mountain Gate.

The first thing Hall Master Niu saw was the mysterious woman, and he asked in a deep voice, "Was it you who killed disciples of my Fierce Battle Sect?"

"Hall Master Niu, it was her! The five brothers had just charged up and were directly shattered into a mist of blood, you must avenge them!" With the backing of his superior, the disciple spoke with full confidence.

Hearing this, Hall Master Niu’s anger subsided, replaced by a newfound calm.

The opponent hadn’t even made a move yet and had already shattered his disciples into a mist of blood—an extraordinary method indeed.

But, anyone who killed members of my Fierce Battle Sect, no matter how strong, must die!

Hall Master Niu harrumphed coldly, stomped his foot on the ground, and in an instant, charged out.

"I, the Hall Master, want to see just who dared to kill people right in front of my Fierce Battle Sect’s Mountain Gate!"

Boom!

In an instant, Hall Master Niu transformed into a hundred-zhang tall golden ox and charged at the mysterious woman in the black robe.

His iron hooves crushed the mountains and rivers!

As Hall Master Niu morphed into his true form, the ground under his iron hooves collapsed, the terror was palpable.

The very void trembled with rumbling sounds!

Under the terrifying aura of Hall Master Niu, the mysterious woman in black seemed as tiny as an ant, her presence hardly noticeable.

If not for the fact that she had instantly killed five Fierce Battle Sect disciples just before, one might mistake her for a mere mortal.

But...

The seemingly weak mysterious woman, even as Hall Master Niu in the form of a hundred-zhang golden ox charged at her, didn’t even have her robes flutter, remaining utterly calm.

It was as though the space she occupied had nothing to do with where Hall Master Niu was.

Whoosh————

Just as Hall Master Niu was about to trample the woman to death, the woman’s Black Saber was unsheathed.

She drew the saber, and in an instant, it was sheathed again.

Hiss————

Following that, Hall Master Niu was cleaved in two, his body bursting apart to each side.

The disciple from Fierce Battle Sect watching this scene had his mouth wide open, but he couldn’t utter a single sound.

Soon after, that disciple was also split in two.

Rumble, rumble————

Not just that, but the entirety of Fierce Battle Sect’s territory was also cleaved in two at that moment.

However, inside Fierce Battle Sect, there was not a single sound from anyone.

It was as if this had become a land of the dead.

Should anyone enter Fierce Battle Sect now, they would be utterly shocked by the scene.

Inside Fierce Battle Sect, every single person was cut in two.

Every single person...

Including Sect Leader Luo Qiaofeng, as well as Supreme Elder Hu Yun True Person and another Supreme Elder.

Other Supreme Elders and Elders alike suffered the same fate.

Every person, all in that instant, wiped out!

Not a single soul was left within Fierce Battle Sect.

Complete annihilation in the blink of an eye.

And all of this, was merely because that mysterious woman in black unsheathed her sword.
